The goal of the current study was to identify risk factors that predict sexual intimate partner violence (IPV) victimization across young women's relationship histories, within a socioeconomically diverse sample recruited from a university, a 2-year college, and community organizations serving low-income young women. We interviewed 148 young women aged 18 to 24 years about partner victimization (physical IPV, coercive control, and sexual IPV) within each of their relationships (up to four relationships, beginning with their first; 388 in total). We used the life history calendar to structure the interviews and obtain detailed information about each relationship, including age difference between participants and their partners, and relationship length. We used multilevel modeling to examine primary caregiver highest grade completed (an indicator of socioeconomic status [SES]), participant age, age difference, relationship length, setting, and physical IPV/coercive control as predictors of sexual IPV during their first relationship and across Relationships 1 to 4. Sexual IPV during participants' first relationship was inversely associated with SES and age, and positively associated with physical IPV/coercive control; 2-year college and community participants reported lower rates of sexual IPV during the first relationship, compared with university participants. The trajectory of sexual IPV across Relationships 1 to 4 declined among university participants and increased among 2-year college participants; age difference and physical IPV/coercive control positively covaried with sexual IPV across Relationships 1 to 4. Low SES, young age, large age difference, and the presence of physical IPV and coercive control may be risk factors for sexual IPV victimization within adolescent relationships. Sexual violence prevention and intervention approaches should incorporate these risk factors, and be designed to reach an increasingly socioeconomically diverse population across a variety of settings, to be effective.
本研究旨在确定风险因素,以预测在一个社会经济多样化的样本中,年轻女性在其关系史中经历性亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)的情况,该样本是从大学、两年制学院和为低收入年轻女性服务的社区组织中招募的。我们采访了 148 名年龄在 18 至 24 岁之间的年轻女性,询问了她们在每段关系(最多四段,从第一段开始;总共 388 段)中遭受伴侣的身体暴力(身体 IPV)、强制性控制和性 IPV 的情况。我们使用生命史日历来组织访谈,并获取有关每段关系的详细信息,包括参与者与伴侣之间的年龄差异和关系长度。我们使用多层次模型来检验主要照顾者最高完成年级(社会经济地位[SES]的指标)、参与者年龄、年龄差异、关系长度、背景以及身体 IPV/强制性控制,作为他们第一段关系和第 1 至 4 段关系中发生性 IPV 的预测因素。参与者的第一段关系中发生的性 IPV 与 SES 和年龄呈反比,与身体 IPV/强制性控制呈正比;与大学参与者相比,两年制学院和社区参与者报告的第一段关系中的性 IPV 发生率较低。大学参与者的第 1 至 4 段关系中的性 IPV 轨迹下降,而两年制学院参与者的性 IPV 轨迹增加;年龄差异和身体 IPV/强制性控制与第 1 至 4 段关系中的性 IPV 呈正相关。低 SES、年轻、年龄差异大以及存在身体 IPV 和强制性控制可能是青少年关系中性 IPV 受害的风险因素。性暴力预防和干预方法应纳入这些风险因素,并设计为在各种背景下覆盖越来越多样化的社会经济人群,以达到有效性。
